Looking out the window of our bus
March 30 and 31st we spent on planes, trains and omnibusses and arrived in Bariloche 40 hours later.
We purchased deluxe "camas" which allowed us to recline the seats flat like a bed. Our little hotel was right downtown. What it lacks in size and comfort it more than makes up for in antiquated electrical design. The light switch inside the shower makes me laugh.
We have been able to go for hikes and used a "teleferrico" or ski gondola. While the weather has been sunny, it has been very windy. We arrived in time for Semana Santa a time for people in big cities everywhere to get out of dodge. Bariloche is probably much noisier during the day because of it. There is a lot of construction still going on and it is Saturday.
We will be flipping a coin to decide where to next. There is a nice hiking area in Bolson that might be fun to try. We were also thinking about going into Chile.
The buses have been really easy to use. We took one to Nuepue National Park about a 15 mile jaunt.
